Tuesday, August 8th, 2023
- Network in Neutrinos, Nuclear Astrophysics, and Symmetries (N3AS) Seminar
- Unmatched Precision on Neutrino Oscillation Parameters using Complementarity between DUNE and T2HK
- Time: 2:00 pm
- Place: Join Zoom Meeting Meeting ID: 912 3071 4547
- Speaker: Sanjib Kumar Agarwalla , Institute of Physics, India
- Abstract: : In this talk, I will discuss in detail the capabilities of the next-generation high-precision long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments DUNE (in US) and T2HK (in Japan) in isolation and combination to address the major unknowns in the three-flavor neutrino oscillation paradigm. I will show how the possible complementarity/synergy among the on-axis DUNE and off-axis T2HK experiments can enhance the prospects of precise measurements of the two most uncertain oscillation parameters: atmospheric mixing angle ($\theta_{23}$) and the Dirac CP phase ($\delta_{CP}$) at the early stages of these experiments, suppressing the parameter degeneracies in three-flavor neutrino oscillation.

Wednesday, August 9th, 2023
- High Energy Seminar
- On the origin of ANITA's intriguing events
- Time: 2:30 pm - 3:30 pm
- Place: Chamberlin 5280 /
- Speaker: Jordi Salvado, University of Barcelona
- Abstract: In recent years, the ANtarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA) has undertaken four flights in the South Pole, with the primary objective of detecting ultra-high energy astrophysical neutrinos within the Antarctic ice. During this period ANITA collaboration has reported several intriguing events apparently compatible with upgoing high energy showers in the atmosphere. In this talk, we will provide an overview of the experimental findings and discuss their potential implications for physics beyond the standard model. Additionally, we will contextualise these results in relation to other experiments such as IceCube.
